Beijing has urged the United States to cancel unilateral tariffs announced by US President Donald Trump, after the Supreme Court struck down some of his measures.
China's Commerce Ministry said it was conducting a "comprehensive assessment" of the impact of the decision and called on Washington to lift the tariffs.
"China urges the United States to lift unilateral tariff measures against its trading partners. There are no winners in a trade war and protectionism leads nowhere," the ministry said in a statement.
The new global tariffs of 15% will take effect tomorrow and are expected to last for 150 days, with exemptions for certain products. China's Foreign Ministry also noted that it is paying "special attention" to possible moves by the United States to maintain the increased tariffs.
"The United States is currently planning alternative measures, such as trade investigations, to maintain tariff increases on trading partners. China will continue to pay close attention to this issue and resolutely safeguard its interests," the ministry said.
